Have you tried jkoljo's guides? They work like a charm, very straight forward and works as it should. You need to downgrade before rooting, then you have to option of going Radio S-OFF and flash whatever Rom you want.

How it makes?)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamiemac1977:
Well credits give for a short and simple post ;)

I hear lots of people have success with Tango (Free on the market) but i have not tried any such app myself yet.

I am not sure if the SNS will be able to use the Google Chat (Video) functions we see on recent tablets (ie: the Xoom, it is not a built in function of froyo (my galaxy tab)).

A good old google search or click on related one you find Tango on the market should find you similar apps (read the reviews to find user experiences).

Wish you luck, i'll let you know if i try any video apps in the future.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zadnica:

I managed to get hold of a book on Amazon called Windows phone 7 secrets by Paul Thurrott. I was just interested to see if anyone else has read it? I found it to be a good read and it has taught me quite a few things about WP7 that i didn't know. Best of all it tells you why Windows phones are MILES better than the Iphone 4!! :D You should all have a read if your into WP7. Its a good book (and i usually don't read books)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] telas:
Could you please make a summary of that book?

Most of us know why it's going to be equal or better from android and iOS, it's because of the tools the sdk the programming language and the ease of converting or modifying existing windows applications to run on wp7 with little effort, plus the fact that there are tons of developers that they already know the programming language.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:

And the search function or Google search is great when it comes to XDA. Whatever you're wondering someone else has probably already asked.
[HTC Inspire 4G] psufan5:
Is it simply wipe /data /system or do we have to do something like on the captivate and return to stock first?

How about if we switch kernels etc - does the process change?

Thanks :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
When switching ROMs, the easiest way is to do it with ClockworkMod Recovery. You download the .zip of the ROM you want to your SD card, boot to recovery, wipe data, cache (this step is only necessary when going from one ROM to another, not if you're just updating a ROM), and dalvik cache, choose install zip from SD card, point to the .zip you downloaded and install. If you have a kernel you want to install, then you boot after you flash the ROM, reboot to recovery, and flash the kernel .zip from cwm recovery

Hi guys, at present is there anyone working on a method of backing up and restoring sms messages? I really don't want to lose all my current messages so I'm effectively trapped using the initial Windows phone 7 build until until someone releases a backup tool.
[Xoom General] mrksbrd:
Anyone else have lag issues when unlocked, rooted, with oc'd kernel installed running at any speed. I mostly notice when coming out of standby mode. Text input on web pages is considerably slow, also loading of web pages. When opening apps it doesn't seem to be affected other than movie playback. Any feedback would be appreciated.....
[Xoom General] mrksbrd:
Oh one other thing....when I first installed OC it was running like wildfire, the longer I'm running it the worse it is getting. Yes the cache was cleared, any other ideas?
[Xoom General] ateld:
Same issue here, not sure of any fix though.
[Xoom General] Ignotus:
this happens to me too but it never lastes more than a min or two.

hmmm i havent noticed this at all. have been overclocked for a little over 2 weeks with only a couple restarts due to theme installs
[Xoom General] Ignotus:
i mean it isn't something that is super noticable for me but sometimes my keyboard lags for a couple mins but then it gets back to normal. i mean it is expected when you have a device that still hasn't had its "official full" update lol.
[Xoom General] MikeyMike01:
This makes my Captivate feel like butter. Apple has nothing to worry about.

Sent from my Xoom
[Xoom General] mcnutty:
Yeah, but compare this experience with stock on the Captivate (cause it's not even close to Serendipity), and that's a whole different comparison ;)

It took a while for good, stable kernels to come out for the Captivate as well. Hopefully Google changes their mind about the source code once the rest of these tablets start coming out, and then we might get some of your fantastic meals for the Xoom too!
[Xoom General] keitht:
No kidding. Flash back to stock Eclair on the Captivate to turbo charge your Xoom.
[Xoom General] androidlurker:
If you are running performance mode with setcpu and have a min freq above 250, the CPU will drop to 250 when you turn screen off and not go above it.

Simple fix is to keep setcpu on "on demand", but you can also keep it on performance and manually bump the freq up by going into setcpu every time you turn the screen on.
[Xoom General] smilepak:
Yea, the only time i lags for me is when i am scrolling via browser or something with a lot of texts / graphics. I would assume a dual 1Ghz would be more smooth than this.
[Xoom General] MikeyMike01:
I'd say that the Xoom is as bad as stock Eclair was.
[Xoom General] keitht:
You have something wrong then. I do not have that experience. In fact, if I try to do some intense things like video recording using your Captivate ROM, my phone chokes where my Xoom does not. Granted, the Xoom does lag for me with certain things, mostly certain web sites in the browser including this site, the overall responsiveness has been just as good or better than my Captivate with your ROM.

Perhaps you should be more specific on what you have installed, how your screens are configured, what widgets you are using, etc. so maybe the culprit can be identified. Are you full stock with nothing installed and experiencing this?
[Xoom General] JOHNGAETANO:
I disagree. You have a bad unit or your doing something wrong. Back off the bashing.
[Xoom General] eyecon82:
im not rooted and i still get lag
[Xoom General] jvs60:
This is true. When i had it set to performance i noticed significant lag. When i changed it to on demand it became much smoother.

FLASHING GALAXY 3 VIA ODIN:

my bro recently bricked the phone and now the phone is at the service centre for repair . they say the whole motherboard would be changed, though it would be free.. but you have to wait until it gets fixed...

TIPS:

while flashing you can do anything..

like:

1. even you can turn off odin before it says pass. or anytime.

2. you can brick your phone...

3. flash wrong roms ,firmwares.

4. mess with the phone.

but while anytime during this:

1.NEVER REMOVE USB CORD

if anything goes wrong anytime.....during flashing.

dont remove battery or usb cord, or turn off odin......

just press power+home+vol down and reflash.

once the software is loaded i.e the blue bar completes and the phone reboots ,

now you can do anything , turn off odin or remove usb. but still you cant remove battery...

so anything goes wrong just press teh three buttons while flashing.

if however you brick the phone, go to service center, and tell them it stopped working spontaneously , do not mention flashing at all....

and they would replace the motherboard of the phone..

HAPPY SAFE FLASHING...
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
dont flash bootloader, thats pretty much it. anything else is pretty much common sense

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonnytech:
Hi,

i was hoping one of the devs or someone equelly as talented might look at this and see a easy fix , ive tryed searching and posting in the relevant rom threads but nothing.

Ok at first i thought it was a issue within the roms however after checking my m8s stock desire hd today i noticed his did the same .... which leads me to belive htc have changed something and made it slightly gay.

The issue with the stock music player htc provide, if i go into the player then goto my albums the desire will list your albums with covers (it fits 9 albums + covers to screen) however if i scroll down the list the covers do not appear to be cached.

IE if i scroll 2 / 9 albums the covers will not load untill the album is displayed on screen if i scroll to the bottom of the album list the albums with covers will all load after approx 3 / 4 seconds. Ok problem sorted you would think as you got all your album covers loaded now, however if i close the music player and go in again its the same thing.

The music player did not perform like this on normal desire or custom roms , if i goto my albums on desire roms / and or stock they are pre cached no loading i can scoll down list there all there (covers). If i quit program go back into the music player all the album covers are there , if i was to do this on a desire HD stock or custom it will load the covers each time you enter the music program , i presume this should be a easy problem to fix but then what i do know , hence why im asking if anyone can look at this please :)

Hi,

i just flashed cognition 4 to my captivate and i want to get a custom boot animation on it but i can't find the default one in my phone using root explorer. Is it in a different place on cognition 4? Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Guti1977:
According to the actual ROM features for Cognition 4.3.1:

- Boot animation customizable (disables boot sound)

Question is, where is the bootanimation.zip on this ROM?

I tried searching for it through Root Explorer but couldn't find it at the /data/local folder.

I also tried within the /system/media folder and I did find a bootsamsung.qmp, bootsamsungloop.qmg, which I guess are the stock samsung animations for the boot screen.

How to change the boot screen on Cognition 4.3?
[General Questions and Answers] lakid06:
I would also like to know how to change the boot animation on cognition 4. I have been all over the forum but cannot find any helpful information.
[General Questions and Answers] olson.lukas:
Custom Boot Animation

All you have to do is put the "bootanimation.zip" file directly into the system/media folder. It will overwrite the default animation.

You can also change the shutdown animation by replacing the "shutdown" folder in system/media/video. (For example, check out this mod... Download the shutdown.zip, extract it, then replace the existing system/media/video/shutdown folder with it.)
[General Questions and Answers] lakid06:
That would normally work but it isn't working for 4.3.1 cog, because there is no zip to replace.
[General Questions and Answers] olson.lukas:
It doesn't matter that you're not replacing an existing bootanimation.zip. Just stick it in there anyway and it should work. It worked for me.
